Wow, I guess people here just never learn

New demo picture that Kings Island posted on Twitter..... http://twitpic.com/b121d7

Its gonna take me a while to think of my top 9 favorite coasters but.... Without hesitation I know the number 1 on my list is The Beast.

Definitly!!! Any day, Just to say that you have a peice of what used to be the Tallest, Fastest wooden roller coaster on earth would be kinda cool.

Wow, its very sad to see this old SOB, torn apart

I would probably think that you should go with Cedar Point.....Maybe get a night ride on Raptor....

I think Vortex is a great roller coaster, I really like the 2 big loops and it is overall in my opinion, a we'll designed/constructed roller coaster. With that being said, Arrow did a much better job when they returned to Kings Island for Vortex than they did the first time they designed a KI coaster......

If you could re-design/ change That Racer, Would you change, add, or remove? Or would you leave it the same? Is there any roller coaster features that you would've liked to see in it?

The longest?? We'll probably Woodstock Express (Fairly Odd Coaster)........I just don't really make it over there to Planet Snoopy very often...I haven't ridden that coaster since July of 2010....

I don't think that the chain was left on the ride because back in 09' and 10' They were not sure of the rides fate which gave them reason to remove the chain along with the cars. The chain is A LOT harder to re-use or remove after sitting and rusting on the wood for 3 years. Just a thought....

I have by far ridden The Beast more than any other roller coaster on the planet.

Great view from the Eiffel Tower...... Thanks for the pictures

NEW for 2013....A duplicate ride from Kings Island's sister park is moved to Kings Island. Creating an all new expirience....

Nowdays, Whenever I hear the name "The Racer", the word "Paint-Job" also comes to mind......

We'll it looks like the rose bowl is cut off from the rest of the ride now....In some peoples opinion, The rose bowl should have been cut off many years ago....

That would be Great, I would love to see some tower shots of the old SOB

Great, very in-depth pictures!!! They really do show how far into demolition they have gotten....

Maybe, Just maybe.....If They were thinking about selling KK's rides, Cedar Fair would be interested? There is going to be a big spot of empty land in Action Zone...

I hate "Mary Janes" too....I think that they are horribly nasty....

So is that good or bad for KK?

Its always a sad thing to watch a ride leave......Its just something about watching theme parks get rid of their rides.....

What are you talking about? It's a roller coaster, indoors. That's it. As "jdawg" said "It's a roller coaster indoors, Thats it".....I mean theres not much to it.... its not Flight of Fear were talking about.....Thats a different story. Flight of Fear is a roller coaster indoors too... I know that....But talking about the small indoor section of BLSC and FoF are a little different.

How does it work? We'll its a launched roller coaster made of steel.....

This should be one heck of a good coaster.....I'll be sure to try to ride it next year!!
